Niall123492 Posted February 9, 2021 Share Posted February 9, 2021 Hi, I know holding ALT and using the mouse wheel rotates the canvas but is there a way to do it with a graphics tablet? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LeG Posted February 13, 2021 Share Posted February 13, 2021 hi there, came to the forum looking for the same answer. but i am afraid that there is none. (given that i understand you correctly) going through the forum I only found the following two old threads with actual comments from @MEB (affinity support team) on the issue. looks like the request for rotation method on non touch devices was answered by said function (mouse wheel and ALT). my workaround: not sure, what you are using, but my tablet (xp-pen pro 15.6) has a control wheel and 6 buttons. one of which i assigned the ALT key to. a workaround and still a pain in the butt as i have to move my hand from the keyboard to the tablet for every rotation, but still better then clicking R 2 million times (okay 24 times) or dropping my pen just to use the mouse wheel...which would be the only alternatives. it's a shame because I was really surprised on how well drawing with Designer works (bravo Affinity 👌). (still looking for a windows desktop alternative for the best vector drawing app out there on touch devices - Concepts - not usable on a tablet at all for the same rotation issues.) https://forum.affinity.serif.com/index.php?/topic/104914-rotate-view-tool/page/2/ https://forum.affinity.serif.com/index.php?/topic/81172-add-a-canvasview-rotationmode-to-windowsdesktop-versions-of-affinity/&tab=comments#comment-426983 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
